Convert portions of your favorite songs to ringtones.
You can use Apple iTunes to convert a song to a ringtone for your phone as long as your phone accepts MP3, WAV, AAC or AIFF ringtone formats. Because most phones accept ringtones up to a certain length, usually 15 to 40 seconds, you can use iTunes to edit a portion of your song to the appropriate length before converting your music. Consult your phone's user manual for the correct length and format of ringtones before you begin.
Instructions
1. Open iTunes and locate the song in your library you want converted. Right-click your song and select "Get Info."
2. Click the "Options" tab. Click the "Start" and "Stop" time boxes so check marks appear, and manually enter times where you want your ringtone to begin and end. This is based on the length of ringtones supported by your phone. Click "OK."
3. Enter the iTunes Preferences window by clicking the "Edit" tab and selecting "Preferences." Click the "Import Settings" button, and click the "Import Using" drop-down menu. Select "MP3 Encoder," "WAV Encoder," "AAC Encoder" or "AIFF Encoder." Click "OK" twice to return to your iTunes library.
4. Right-click your desired song and select "Create... Version," depending on what format you previously chose. Your newly converted song will appear below your old song, edited to the appropriate length and ready to use as a ringtone. Locate your new ringtone on your computer by right-clicking its icon in iTunes and selecting "Show in Finder" or "Show in Windows Explorer."
5. Right-click your old song and select "Get Info." Click "Options" and deselect the "Start" and "Stop" points so your file is not affected during playback. Click "OK" to save your changes.
